Datang Storyteller: Uncovering the Secret of Xuanwu Gate, Li Er was stunned

"Naturally more than that. This is only the output of one furnace. To build a smelter, at least three furnaces are needed."

Hearing the conversation between Cheng Yaojin and Li Shimin, Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Three?"

Li Shimin was taken aback.

The output of one is so amazing, three words.

How much should that be?
Do you want to play so big?

"Yes, three, either don't do it, if you do it, you have to make it interesting, otherwise why waste all that effort?"

Qin Yu answered subconsciously.

Both Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojin stared and did not speak.

At this moment, in Qin Yu's words, their situation is small.

They didn't even intend to do such a big thing.

But I have to say that Qin Yu's proposal is very good.

If you don't play a big one, you are simply sorry for the energy and manpower they spent.

"Then how to build this factory...?"

Li Shimin asked.

Qin Yu thought for a while, picked up the pen and began to draw.

Li Shimin was worried that the paper would not be enough for Qin Yu to draw, so he quickly ordered,

"Quick, hurry up and get some more rice paper."

The servant and eunuch hurried over, took the rice paper and placed it in front of Qin Yu.

Qin Yu didn't speak, and the pen in his hand didn't wander around, but was drawing lines bit by bit.

Factory drawings are not the same as paintings. This thing must be rigorous, and there must be no mistakes in every line or even size.

Otherwise, the slightest loss will be a thousand miles away.

Fortunately, these are all in the skill book rewarded by the system, and Qin Yu has also learned them. Apart from a little effort, there is no problem in painting.

soon.

Qin Yu finished drawing the drawings.

Then Qin Yu drew another picture of the finished product.

Li Shimin looked at the majestic factory building that had already appeared on the paper, with a look of horror on his face.

"This workshop can still be built like this."

"I only see it in my life, I only see it in my life."

Li Shimin sighed twice.

Cheng Yaojin, Li Tai and Li Ke on the side didn't speak either.

It's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't know what to say at all.

Their thinking is limited by the times, let alone an hour, even if they are given a lifetime, they cannot imagine this kind of workshop.

Li Ke was shocked.

Li Tai, on the other hand, frowned thoughtfully.

Qin Yu gave him a book before, because he was going to sail a ship, and the content in the book was of great help to him, but there were still many problems. He and the craftsmen studied for a long time.

Nothing came out.

But seeing Qin Yu's drawings at this moment, he felt suddenly enlightened.

"Brother-in-law, I know what to do."

"Father, emperor, son, I still have something to do first."

After finishing speaking, Li Tai rushed out of the hall before Li Shimin could react.

"Hey, this kid..."

Seeing his reckless appearance, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling helpless.

Qin Yu didn't show any expression. Li Tai seemed to be trying to figure out some key issue. At this time, he couldn't be disturbed.

"Your Majesty, if there is no problem, we can arrange for people to start building according to this blueprint."

Datang's iron output is too low, and there are still too many places to use iron.

Although he had arranged for Li Tailai to be in charge of this matter before, now it seems that he obviously doesn't have the time.

Obviously, he didn't bother to study the issue of iron production.

Qin Yu simply helped solve it directly.

Now that they have a common goal, Qin Yu will naturally not keep it. The stronger Datang is, the sooner the dream in his heart can be realized.

"Okay, then I will arrange the Ministry of Industry to take charge of this matter."

Li Shimin felt a kind of heroism in his heart, so he quickly asked Duan Lun, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, to come over.

When he heard that he wanted to build a furnace and increase the production of iron, Duan Lun naturally agreed without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, the funds..."

Duan Lun said hesitantly.

Li Shimin nodded, "Write a note later, I will approve it for you as much as you need."

If it was before, Li Shimin would definitely not have said this.

But recently, he has made a lot of money, not to mention how much he made from the salt side, but just taking porcelain and glass as an example, he has made a lot of money.

The sales in Chang'an City are already good.

Coupled with a few teams of Hu merchants, every once in a while, not only will they bring him various news, but also countless money.

Today, the treasury is full of money.

It's no longer the racetrack it used to be.

In addition, cooperating with the aristocratic family also made a lot of money.

It can be said that in today's Datang, there is a steady stream of money flowing into the treasury.

Although there is also a lot of money transferred from the treasury, a balance can be achieved, with income less than expenditure.

Of course, this is also because there is no iron.

Otherwise, Li Shimin would have recast armor for the soldiers in the army.

The more he thought about it, the more Li Shimin felt that it was very necessary to increase the production of iron.

Therefore, when Duan Lun mentioned money, he did not hesitate at all, "No matter how much money is spent, we must build the workshop as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

"The minister obeys the order."

Duan Lun breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the money is in place, he can talk about it here.

Just increase manpower.

Qin Yu frowned, "Your Majesty, if you want to speed up the iron smelting process, you need to find one more thing."

"What?"

"coal!"

At this time, Qin Yu also thought of this key issue. Before that, Li Tai promised to build airplanes, ships, and engage in great voyages.

Good guy.

Promise as true.

But up to now, Datang doesn't even have coal.

Also do a fart yo.

Regarding this, Qin Yu was curious whether Li Tai had come up with anything.

In fact, it's not Li Tai's fault, it's true that he gave him the book.

But before building these things, a workshop had to be built first, and the workshop Li Tai planned to build was only just started to manufacture these needed things.

He really didn't look for it.

"Coal? I have already arranged for people to search for it. I found a lot of mines on the Shenmu side, and all of them have been put into mining, so there is no need to worry about this issue."

Li Shimin thought it was something else.

I heard Qin Yu talking about coal.

Immediately laughed.

Although he didn't have much knowledge, Qin Yu told them about the two industrial revolutions, which was not for nothing.

Even if the train and the steam engine can't be produced yet, but the things Qin Yu mentioned, he has already begun to let people look for them.

And many have come to fruition.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu gave Li Shimin a thumbs up, "Not bad, Your Majesty."

"Of course, I'm not a fool. Since this coal is a good thing, I have to find it and put it to use."

Li Shimin learned from Qin Yu that coal can be used not only as fuel, but also to keep warm.

He has already planned that when the iron is produced, he will start to let people start the stove, and then send it out, so that the people in Chang'an City can have a warm winter.

As for the people all over the country, because of his current limited strength, he still can't take care of them.

But it will also be popularized slowly. I believe that within three years, coal and heaters will be popular in Datang.
